Description : The glibc package contains standard libraries which are used by multiple programs on the system. In order to save disk space and memory, as well as to make upgrading easier, common system code is kept in one place and shared between programs. This particular package contains the most important sets of shared libraries: the standard C library and the standard math library. Without these two libraries, a Linux system will not function. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: A security audit of glibc revealed a flaw in the resolver library which was originally reported as affecting versions of ISC BIND 4.9. This flaw also applied to glibc versions before 2.3.2. An attacker who is able to send DNS responses (perhaps by creating a malicious DNS server) could remotely exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2002-0029 to this issue. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Changelog: * Wed Oct 13 2004 Marc Deslauriers <marcdeslauriers@xxxxxxxxxxxx> 2.2.4-44.legacy.3 - Added texinfo and gettext BuildPreReq * Thu Aug 12 2004 Dave Botsch <dwb7@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> - Added legacy keyword - Fix CAN-2002-0029 (getnetby{name,addr} buffer overflow) - Uses Michal Jaegermann's rediffed patch from AS2.1 --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/ 787b02c547d9578eab2112b681d58ce40589dd37 7.3/updates-testing/i386/glibc-2.2.5-44.legacy.3.i386.rpm d73f3bf9fd6c094dbf3d7c0409c0d34de40a1cfd 7.3/updates-testing/i386/glibc-2.2.5-44.legacy.3.i686.rpm df3fdb0f5d327b10bb285b06a5f1422642b980b7 7.3/updates-testing/i386/glibc-common-2.2.5-44.legacy.3.i386.rpm 61e6c8521d67f38e96c679b3d263f6dccfb43b75 7.3/updates-testing/i386/glibc-debug-2.2.5-44.legacy.3.i386.rpm d5b070b85a0a57702f3259790e59707dd8d67ef1 7.3/updates-testing/i386/glibc-debug-2.2.5-44.legacy.3.i686.rpm e8988fb212ad671469f190f01b35c7664298ea58 7.3/updates-testing/i386/glibc-debug-static-2.2.5-44.legacy.3.i386.rpm f2043d369aeb8a8a39b0f1e429fdbcf08dcefd5b 7.3/updates-testing/i386/glibc-devel-2.2.5-44.legacy.3.i386.rpm 5902d254f9926b0c532e8af5e0fe3ed22e105215 7.3/updates-testing/i386/glibc-profile-2.2.5-44.legacy.3.i386.rpm 6c8b2d53b0626265c180ba09a1a6161e4be6765d 7.3/updates-testing/i386/glibc-utils-2.2.5-44.legacy.3.i386.rpm 26282373e4cd3770b40b3cf10dc17b7f6f23ce6a 7.3/updates-testing/i386/nscd-2.2.5-44.legacy.3.i386.rpm b8f02cd099305c9866715493147ca9c9dcecfff0 7.3/updates-testing/SRPMS/glibc-2.2.5-44.legacy.3.src.rpm Please note that this update is also available via yum and apt through the updates-testing channel.
